District:
(S/E) From the car park at the old Glay quarry, follow the circular trail to discover the golden stone cliffs, the stonemasons' houses and the superb views of the Beaujolais region.
(1) From the car park, take the wooden staircase to climb up to a viewpoint overlooking the golden stone cliffs. Then go back down the stairs and turn left.
(2) As soon as possible, take the path on the right and descend towards the vineyard. Go around it on the left and, as soon as possible, go straight down. When you reach the road, turn left and then take the first road on the right, the D19.
On this section of road, keep well to the left as cars can travel quite fast here. Pass the house on the bend and take the path immediately after on the left. You will then be surrounded by vineyards. When you reach the house, continue straight ahead and follow the path into the woods.
On your right is a pond. Take the path up to the left along the Goutte de Glay. During the climb, turn onto the first path on the right to descend to a small waterfall.
(3) Be careful on the last few metres before the waterfall, as they can be very slippery. Go back up the path in the opposite direction, then turn right towards the village of Glay. Take the opportunity to admire the golden stone houses typical of the Beaujolais region.
(4) Take the third road on the left towards the cross. Be careful when crossing the road at this cross. Take the road opposite.
As soon as possible, return to the starting point by walking along the top of the vineyards. This will be more pleasant than taking the road.
(2) Return via the first path you took to the Carrière car park (S/E).
